Hundreds of unionized food workers walked off their jobs Monday, leading to shuttered restaurants, bars, coffee shops and lounges at San Francisco International Airport.
Airport officials issued an apology to the thousands of travelers who would be streaming through the airport on Monday.
The strike is being staged by the nearly 1,000 members of UNITE HERE Local 2 who work at the airport as part of a wage dispute. "I have to work two jobs to support my family and meet our needs, and it means I barely get to see my kids and grandkids," said Vivian Narvarte, who works at both Pie Five Pizza and Ladle & Leaf Restaurant at SFO."My pay for a whole hour of work is less than the price of just one meal. That is so unfair. I'm on strike because I want to quit my second job and have more time with my family.
